I was playing solitaire today! haha!!

 

yeah.... i want one in my car... but meh... so expensive..........

 

i wouldn't mind having a mac mini in my car 800 bucks get you a killer computor, can run any pc program and mac. no need to worry about viruses. if you have a iphone you can take it online if know what your doing. i could mount a camera in my car to recored meets and rides. edit it and burn dvd's for every one. make songs in garage band and make sounds tracks for said dvd's. wait this isn't pimp my ride or is it.

i never under stood the whole car pc thing. i can understand it when people use it to have pc gauges and be able to have different tunes saved ect. but besides that whats the point. again never under stood dvd's xbox's ect in car too. remind me too much of ff the kid playing a racing game right befor racing.


heck i wish i could find that bmw that has a projector ,and xbox in it. the made it so the cars steering wheel,brake,gas shifter worked for some racing game. pluse the car was still drivable . the video on you tube showed the car driving around then pulled in to a garage and then bam the project turned on and he was playing a racing game.

 

So i think we made a pretty big mistake cutting the engine out of the front clip guys xD

i was looking at it today.. and i realized that the powersteering line for the RHD rack is cut apart... and... i kinda needed it xD hrm... any suggestions? xD

 

send it to mavel gear and have them convert it to a manual rack or get an fc manual rack.

 

stop foruming and finish ur microtech DAMNIT

 

 

well i don't necessarily have the tools and **** at school.

 

grow a set. depowered ftw

 

make a friend with some one in the japan section and see if they can get what you need. thats how i got some parts for my car. you can cheat the man by not paying cretin taxes be cause it just some one sending a big gift. and depending on the vaule of the dollar when you pay pall them it. you can save more that way

 

give me your car for a week and 1500 bucks and ill build you one.

 

why so much money how much of that is the cost of the pc.
i wish i could figure out a way to to mount a small key board and mouse. so i could take my mac mini out and still use it in my house.

 

yeah i will, just it wont be for a while... and yer gonna have to figure out how to mount my guages and **** xD cause right now, they're going where you put the touchscreen.

 

if you want gen i could make you a custom gauge holder, out of fiber glass. id just need a mold of the area you want the gauges mounted to. how many gauges are you going to run. you could also mountthem on you glove box angeled towards you.
theres a **** load of way's you could mount them.

 

radio is going in the glovebox

gauges are going where izzy has his flat screen

no idea where id put them otherwise...

going with Oil temp, oil pressure, water temp and boost.

 

pillar i know 3 can go there could make a pod that goes over you cluster, like on your dash. u could just get a cup to hold the boost. also you could try to find a pod holder that goes over the air bag.

goes in place of your one din radio.

 

search around for a flyrx7 triple pod. google it. they aren't made anymore but one pops up every now and then on the forum.

 

I have a CarPC I will sell. PII, 128MB, 60G, Linksys wireless card, Soundblaster 6ch soundcard, DVD, Opus 90W DC-DC power supply. $250 and its yours. You'd need a touch screen and a 4 channel amp. I had it set up and doing dry runs on my desk. I got burned on two screens and gave up on the project.

 

damn... wish i had 250 bucks....

 

i wish i had 250 bucks too lol. good deal Pete. how is the swap coming?

 

well, if you somehow still have it when i have 250, we'll talk xD

 

i keep justifying to myself that i have a laptop so i really wouldnt need a car pc. but it just seems like a neat idea. i dont think there's any good place to mount the screen in an fc though.
